I am running 4.9.1 from VS2012, so the site is running on IIS Express.
When i click 'desktop media uploader' tab on the media section, i see the flash animation, which shows 'Install now'. I click it, and it tells me it need Adobe Air (which is actually installed already), when i click 'Yes' i just get an 'a download error occurred'.
I have installed tried to install the air app via '/umbraco/plugins/theoutfield/desktopmediauploader/desktopmediauploader.air'
The install goes well, but the flash animation still wants to install it.
I have tried to add the mimetype to IIS Express via:
C:\Program Files (x86)\IIS Express>appcmd set config /section:staticContent /+[fileExtension='air',mimeType='application/vnd.adobe.air-application-installer-package+zip']
I have tried to restart the IIS Express without any luck.
I'm experiencing the same thing with 4.1.0 RC using webmatrix - And since DMU has been a part of the Umbraco core for a while I think this should be reported on the issue tracker rather in this forum. (Of course if Matt has some pointers on how to solve the issue that would be great).
Let me know if you file a bug report and I will vote it up as well.
When you go to "Media" you can choose the "Get started" tab and then it's found under the second headline called "Desktop Media Uploader" (Maybe that's also the dashboard being added when doing a manual install - but as mentioned it's included in core but you still need to install air in order to make it work).
Do you know if there is anyway to get the 'Desktop Media Uploader' to remember multiple sites? So I can set it up for more than one site, and just select the site i want to upload to?
If that feature is missing, would http://issues.umbraco.org/issues/U4 be the correct place to suggest that change? I have no experience myself in coding .air applications, so someone else would have a lot easier a job :)
Installing the .air app fails
I am trying your package on my development setup.

Any clues?

Hi Jan, eller 'Hej Jan' as we would say in danish :-)
I must admit I had no clue it was in the core :)
How to access it from the backend? Can't find it. I install the package.
If it help, i'll gladly submit the above post as a a bug report.
When you go to "Media" you can choose the "Get started" tab and then it's found under the second headline called "Desktop Media Uploader" (Maybe that's also the dashboard being added when doing a manual install - but as mentioned it's included in core but you still need to install air in order to make it work).
Hope this helps :)

LOL i need to clean my glasses or actually read the 'Get Started' info :-)
Have never noticed it.
That 'installer' fails as well, so I have created bug report as you suggested.

Hi Søren
Seems like I was way to quick on the trigger there. According to Tom's comment on the bug report this may because of a Chrome bug: http://our.umbraco.org/projects/website-utilities/desktop-media-uploader/bugs,-feedback-and-suggestions/33814-Install-Now-via-Badge-fails-download-error-occurred
Let's try and see if the steps he describes fixes the issue :)
/Jan
It does fix it :)
Godmorning Jan :-)

Morning Søren
I don't think that feature is currently supported - But it would indeed be a usefull one!
Since DMU is core now I think it would make sense to add a feature request on the issue tracker. Sebastiaan will put us straight if it's not! :)

Jan i created this issue:
http://issues.umbraco.org/issue/U4-1133
Hope it's done correctly, feel free to vote for it :)
Voted - Sebastiaan will let us know if it's been misplaced I'm sure :)
